Thanks Pete. I will take a deeper look at that example.
I am a bit worried at the start, though. Running that example
on my old laptop locked up the whole system (required a hard
reboot) and on my desktop it fails with OpenGL errors:
QGLShader: could not create shader
Vertex shader for simpleShaderProg (MainVertexShader &
PositionOnlyVertexShader) failed to compile
QGLShader: could not create shader
Fragment shader for simpleShaderProg (MainFragmentShader &
ShockingPinkSrcFragmentShader) failed to compile
QGLShaderProgram: could not create shader program
Errors linking simple shader: ""
QGLShader: could not create shader
Vertex shader for blitShaderProg (MainWithTexCoordsVertexShader &
UntransformedPositionVertexShader) failed to compile
QGLShader: could not create shader
Fragment shader for blitShaderProg (MainFragmentShader &
ImageSrcFragmentShader) failed to compile
QGLShaderProgram: could not create shader program
Errors linking blit shader: ""
QGLShader: could not create shader
Warning: "" failed to compile!
Commenting out the QGLWidget viewport allows the program
to run, but I'd be leery of using something in my application that
can fail so spectacularly.
